the noise never fades;
my poise takes the bait;
in the halls of liberation,
i submit to my fate.
i took a solemn vow:
to be ‘holier-than-thou’.
neither wrong, nor right,
i knew, until now.
i failed to see a cause;
the effect? - a terrible loss;
blinded by obsessions,
i never took a pause.
it’s been a while since the fall,
when i sprung to a brawl
with my virtues, unmasked -
and caved in to nightfall.
it all seems a blur;
it’s ‘bout time i concurred:
my reason to exist
shall always be a curse.
